The Integrative Vascular Biology Laboratory aims to unravel the fundamental principles and molecular/genetic regulation of functional vascular network formation in development and disease.

During the Corona pandemic, half a million researchers from more than 170 different fields published articles about the virus or the COVID-19 disease. Many of them were not really virus-experts, even automobile researchers published about Corona. In the new episode of the BIH-podcast, John Ioannidis, famous meta-researcher from Stanford and Berlin,…

The Haas group develops and applies novel multimodal single-cell and spatially-resolved technologies to study the complex etiology of hematological cancers and their interaction with the immune system.

Hematopoiesis describes the process of blood formation and is sustained by the activity of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells throughout our lifetime. While our understanding of stem cell biology continues to grow, it still remains challenging to study the in vivo activity of individual stem cells in humans.

The Potente laboratory focuses on the vasculature—the largest organ in the human body. We study how vascular networks develop and remodel and how their function becomes abnormal in disease states.

We investigate clinical pathophysiological metabolic changes of muscle and fat tissue in chronic diseases. In clinical work, cardiovascular knowledge is combined with acute therapy and stroke rehabilitation. Our research is focused on metabolic pathophysiology, which leads to weight loss and loss of muscle mass, cachexia and sarcopenia in chronic…

We performed a systematic review of concepts and solutions for use cases such as digital contact tracing to inform the current discussions on an optimal balance between privacy protection and pandemic control.
